ALEX INTAS
For over a decade Alex Intas has moved within Australia’s soulful underground proving to be a key piece of the puzzle. From founding cult Brisbane party turned record store A Love Supreme, to his work with Gilles Peterson & Red Bull Music Academy, Alex is regarded for his wealth of knowledge, eclectic taste and passionate pursuit of promoting underground soul and club sounds. Quietly going about his business, many might not know the magic touch Alex has had on bringing Australian music to the world or equally, bridging global influences to his native homeland. Alex joins the dots, and is commonly identified as an integral link in realising the vision.
A true music lover and avid record collector, Alex offers his discerning touch in whichever direction he chooses. Fundamentally a lover of jazz and soul, Alex explores its link within the club context. While his understanding touches on the esoteric and avant-garde, ask him and you will quickly find out he is a self-confessed sucker for music with a “funky bottom and a sweet top.” With a style distinctly that of his own, expect a DJ set inspired by the blueprint of names like Jam & Lewis, LaFace, Kashif, Leroy Burgess, Teddy Riley, Silk Hurley, Burrell Brothers, Kano, Mike Dunn, Mr Fingers & beyond. Alex presents his radio show on Worldwide FM monthly.
